There is a limit in openssl.cnf and also a hard limit imposed by the OpenSSL source. The 64 character limit is mandated by RFC3280 which OpenSSL enforces. The only way to change that is to modify the OpenSSL sources. If you really want to do that it is in asn1.h as ub_organization_name. Steve. -- Dr Stephen N. Henson.
